    Oshokoya noted that participants had training sessions on advanced sales strategies, team development and global best practices in real estate investment. “The programme also included guided city tours of Doha’s iconic skyline and cultural landmarks in Rwanda, providing associates with firsthand exposure to international markets and investment landscapes,” he added.

    One participant described his experience at the programme as life-changing, noting that the training modules challenged conventional thinking about wealth creation and professional excellence.

    “The level of investment Abode is making in its associates is unprecedented in the Nigerian real estate sector.

    “This isn’t just about selling land; it’s about building a generation of financially intelligent Africans,” he said.

    Mr Oshokoya emphasized that land remains one of the most reliable wealth preservation tools, stressing, “We’re not just selling property; we’re offering Africans a tangible stake in the continent’s economic future.”

    He noted that the company had positioned itself beyond a real estate firm, adopting a mission to democratize wealth across Africa through simplified property ownership and empowerment programmes.

    “The Qatar-Rwanda Associate Bootcamp represents the latest in a series of initiatives aimed at building a network of financially empowered professionals across the continent,” he said.

    Real experts said such investments in human capital development had set Abode apart from traditional real estate companies and highlight a shift toward a more holistic wealth creation across Africa’s property market.

    Abode calls for democratisation of real estate sector

    Abode Assets Limited has called for democratization of the real estate sector to allow low-income earners tap into the immense benefits.

    Abode’s commitment to spreading the gain in the sector to the grassroots was solidified over the weekend with the official launch of the massive 100-acre Empire Park Estate, a project designed to prove that real estate investment is no longer the exclusive preserve of the ultra-wealthy.

     In a move that challenges industry norms, Abode unveiled a model where investors can become certified landowners with a commitment of as little as ₦100,000.

    This low entry barrier is central to the company’s mission of ‘Shared Prosperity,’ allowing everyday Nigerians to access genuine wealth.

     Redefining access and transparency at the launch, Mr. Jeffrey Itepu, CEO of Abode Assets, reiterated the company’s inclusivity mandate, saying : “Irrespective of your income level, location, or social class, you should be able to participate in the prosperity that is in real estate.”

     Backing this vision with operational excellence, the COO, Mr. Damilare Oshokoya, highlighted how technology ensures safety for their growing community of over 2,000 investors across 13 countries:

     “One of the things that made the system smooth and transparent is that it was digitalised from the onset. With Abode, you get all information at the tap of a button.”

     Guests enjoyed horse riding and face painting, signaling that wealth creation can be a joyful, community-centric experience. As one new landowner noted, “I enjoyed horse riding… but owning land? That’s generational wealth.

     “With Empire Park, Abode Assets Limited has fundamentally changed the narrative, proving that with the right partner, wealth is accessible to everyone.”
